I am a Licensed Practical Nurse with 15 years of experience delivering compassionate, patient-centered care across long-term care, acute settings, and home health.

I have supplemented hands-on nursing with administrative and coordination roles: intake/PCMA duties, referral processing, scheduling, medical records, insurance verification, and staff supervision. I am experienced with Epic and other medical office systems and have led training, managed staff schedules, and coordinated multidisciplinary case conferences.
I am currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice (Advocacy & Human Services) to transition into advocacy within the criminal justice system, leveraging my clinical background, client advocacy experience, and administrative proficiency to support vulnerable populations.
